Did you know if you Goodsearch or Goodshop for your favorite charity they will receive about one cent for each search and a percent donated of the sale from the retailer you purchase from? And it costs you nothing! That is right - absolutely nothing. All you have to do is search or shop through GoodSearch/GoodShop.
And if you go here - to make it easier for you - you can download a Toolbar to do this for Breath of Hope! Last year we started a campaign where the proceeds raised from GoodSearch would go to CDH Research. GoodSearch for CDH Research - and we have given the proceeds to research that will benefit medical research of congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
So download the toolbar and when you do your on-line shopping or searching - you will benefit CDH Medical Research!

United Way Day of Caring - Hand Print Kits & Ribbon Assembly!
September 23, 2009 -A huge thank you to the Thomas Jefferson Area United Way and the Volunteers who came from the University of Virginia Health Services Library who helped assemble 400 Hand Print Kits and about 1,000 Awareness Ribbons on Cards! Also many thanks to PRA International in Charlottesville who donated the Training Rooms as an area to have these volunteers help with these projects.
The Infant Hand Print Kits:
These will go to the University of Virginia's CMC Neonatal Intenstive Care Unit - all families who have a baby admitted at UVA's NICU receive one of these kits to capture their child's small hand print at birth. We also provide a kit in our Expectant / New Parent Packages for families who have a baby diagnosed with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
Below are a few pictures of the amazing group assembling ribbons on cards.
They also featured their good work and they should here
Quotes by Ghandi on his Birthday...
Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary, the evil it does is permanent.
In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after the Truth.
It is unwise to be too sure of one’s own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.
Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.
(The last one, I believe explains the amazing strength of these infants and children in battling CDH and their parents for loving them through the battles.)
